Setting a publish period for a module

Overview

Content or site managers may want to establish a length of time for a certain future module to be published and viewable on a DNN page; during a company promotional period, for instance. After this time-frame has passed, the module will no longer be available or visible to end-users.

3. Click on the edit pageicon at the lower left of the page.

4. Hoverover the module and clickon the Admin icon.

5. Select Settings from the admin menu.

6. In the module settings page that pops up, click onAdvanced Settings to expand the section.

7. Click onStart Date and End Date to open a calendar widget. Select the appropriate dates on the calendars.

8. Clickon the Save button.

9. Validate that the publish period has been applied by logging out and navigatingto the page with the module. If successful, it will not be visible. When logged in as an admin, however, it will be visible on the page.
